It appears that all discrete logic mappers either switch 32kB at a time with no fixed bank ("GxROM-like"), or have a 16kB fixed bank and can switch the other ("UxROM-like"). The tables below illustrate the tradeoffs between CHR, PRG, and banking style.

† 4F+4 or 4+4F CHR-RAM banking, not 8 CHR-ROM banking
¹ has mapper-controlled single-screen mirroring
ʰ has mapper-controlled H/V mirroring
* Emulators commonly implement mapper 93 as a plain UNROM variant, not supporting CHR banking. But the hardware does support it.
